Analysis of Electrocardiographic Criteria of Right Ventricular Hypertrophy in Patients with Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension before and after Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty

Background: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) may lead to typical electrocardiographic changes that can be reversed by balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA). The aim of this study was to investigate the significance of rarely used electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters, possible electr...
